What a fantastic accomplishment! People don't write fabulous songs like this anymore---that's a shame:-( You rank right up there with his greats like: "Town Without Pity", "Liberty Valance", "Twenty Four Hours from Tulsa". I miss that "innocent" music. There is a pretty funny story in Wikipedia about Gene and this song :-) ... "This Morning incident. Pitney was involved in a gaffe on ITV's This Morning in 1989, owing to a "technical mishap". Giving a performance of his track "You're the Reason", Pitney missed his cue and was seen "failing dismally to mime along in time to his backing track"; ] he continued with the song, and found humor in the incident. It has been repeated on television over the years, notably on a 2002 episode of BBC One series Room 101, in which host Paul Merton described it as a "very funny moment" in which Pitney came in "unbearably late".[13] It was re-aired on the 25th anniversary edition of This Morning in 2013, in which presenter Holly Willoughby "broke out into a cold sweat" while reliving the moment." ruclips.net/video/XCbalCVq4dA/видео.html
Gene Pitney didn't miss his cue. He couldn't hear the music. Another stuff up by ITV's This Morning. Mr Pitney was not the only artist for this to happen to. All credit to Gene Pitney for how he handled this.
My husband was the Gene Pitney fan but I'm sold on this great song. I don't think I could tire of listening to it, brilliantly written Allan and perfect for Gene's voice. I wonder if I'll find it in his collection when I can go through it.
All day long in my thoughts, you're beside me Close my eyes and I know you'll be there Nice to know, that you'll always forgive me With your smile and your love so dear Late at night, in my dreams you surround me Smiling soft, as we slip through the night Want to touch, there are times you astound me Whispering words in the morning light Seems to me, seems to me you're the reason Why I live, try to give all I can And to see, that for me, I'm forgiven When you're near, I'll know you'll understand So don't you forget, what I'm saying is true And it's coming from deep in my heart And I hope that you know, with this feeling For you, nothing can keep us apart But if you go, I would never forget you Like the thought, you are deep in my mind I guess you know, in my lifetime of waiting With your warmth and your love so fine Seems to me, seems to me, you're the reason Why I live, try to give all I can Can't you see, that for me, I'm forgiven When you're near, I know you'll understand Ah, seems to me, seems to me you're the reason Why I live, try to give all I can Why can't you see, that for me, I'm forgiven When you're near, I know you'll understand Ah, seems to me, seems to me you're the reason Why I live, try to give all I can Ah, why can't you see, that for me
In the early morning of 5th April 2006 Gene Pitney died from a heart attack caused by badly occluded arteries. The night before he received a standing ovation when he performed at a sold out concert in Wales. He must have retired that night a very happy man.

Please 🙏 I want the lyrics
All day long in my thoughts, you're beside me
Close my eyes and I know you'll be there
Nice to know, that you'll always forgive me
With your smile and your love so dear
Late at night, in my dreams you surround me
Smiling soft, as we slip through the night
Want to touch, there are times you astound me
Whispering words in the morning light
Seems to me, seems to me you're the reason
Why I live, try to give all I can
And to see, that for me, I'm forgiven
When you're near, I'll know you'll understand
So don't you forget, what I'm saying is true
And it's coming from deep in my heart
And I hope that you know, with this feeling
For you, nothing can keep us apart
But if you go, I would never forget you
Like the thought, you are deep in my mind
I guess you know, in my lifetime of waiting
With your warmth and your love so fine
Seems to me, seems to me, you're the reason
Why I live, try to give all I can
Can't you see, that for me, I'm forgiven
When you're near, I know you'll understand
Ah, seems to me, seems to me you're the reason
Why I live, try to give all I can
Why can't you see, that for me, I'm forgiven
When you're near, I know you'll understand
Ah, seems to me, seems to me you're the reason
Why I live, try to give all I can
Ah, why can't you see, that for me
